Of course its the 4k P3P wonderful copter...when it works...very buggy... I am NOT impressed with the complexity.....and I am a Computer geek... I appreciate the X8 for simplicity of flight.... but that's just me.

yes still under warranty....usb does feel loose...I have changed the cable.... nothing seems to make it work right...probably will exchange for new bird seems to be a problem with DJI.... I should have gotten the Typhoon 4k

Brand new Phantom III...6 flights in, now I get a red status mssg saying "No Signal" the copter is flyable, just no video....and minimal OSD info...and wont auto take off..... I swapped the usb cable...no avail firmware is the latest update worked fine till it sat for two months.....DJI is aware...

I considered a batt. change for the Tx..need to know limits of Tx voltage first but I do have two 2.4 Tx's that use 6 batts instead of 4

WELL.........its like this...the factory Tx ant. was nothing more than a 3/4 inch piece of speaker wire soldered to the ant connection on the board....NO GOOD.... it requires 4.9 inches of ant to reach a full 2.4 ghz wave...and max range... a Youtube video guided me to install a 2db gain 2.4ghz...

Crapshoot, then...unless I hit on the right advice... thought I would pick up an older X5 and try it...maybe I will wait...I heard the X5C-1 wont work but if it does work I can get better range on the X5 even after Tx antt. mod....the range wont get better than 100 meters and falls out of the...

All right guys...help me out here....I have a Syma X8C... I have heard you can fly the X5 models with an X8 Tx.. better range and better response... My X8C Tx will NOT bind to my X5C-1 updated version.... is this because it is C-1 and not plain ole' X5 I have heard this to be true....any one...

I strongly recommend the Syma X8 models...great range and performance... and only roughly 25 bucks more than the X5 models...but WAY more copter.... I own both..and should have gotten two X8's.... so good I got my Dad one as a trainer for his DJI Phantom III

I have absolutely NO Idea what you are talking about...or even how anything you just said has anything to do with the thread post......We kinda like to stick to ONE subject at a time...and make our posts, make sense, according to the subject YOU replied or commented on.....

If you do....You will not go wrong...and you will be happy... order a Andoer gimble assy...non motorized...under 20 bucks..... then order a set of DJI Phantom III white gimble balls...the black ones that come in the gimble are way too stiff for light cameras....when these items are in your...

Of course you can....how much imagination do you have?....that is the only hindrance.....sky's the limit oh...and weight......you need to keep ...(camera..battery..and camera mount)...4 oz or less....NO MORE a gopro is too heavy...I suggest something like a xiomi sport cam or a runcam...I am...

Hope you now get the hang of it.......Your welcome.

Listen to US here.....we will take you far.....

for heavens sake...the direction you place it upon powering up and binding is KEY........... ALWAYS....... place the X8 facing AWAY from you........ALWAYS.....when binding do it this way... probably NOTHING wrong with your Tx....face it away...then forwards is away and back is back...left is...

BTW....you can get me on my private email...at ...twrig3846@gmail.com............ I have cam and mike so we could teleconference about repairs or Tx mod, when the time comes.... don't know where you are...so timing is key...I am in WA state...and work day shift...so just feel free to get ahold...

These things happen...out of all the X8's I know of...yours is the first to have this issue, most have had only minor motor issues....or Tx range issues..( of which you need to address after you get the new one)......YouTube videos will aid you in modding the Tx ant. very simple.......It is a...

And suggestions on how to determine the problem?? I am an engineer, and a Computer specialist, with circuit board repair background...I do not even know where to start, to coach you, on how to diagnose, .....other than what I have spoken about....circuits are something you know...or don't...

That is a very real possibility...does someone you know have an X8? possibly try their Tx and see if the copter responds properly, that will tell you if it is the Tx or the bird, this is how I determined the problem with my Dads, his would fly with my Tx but not even bind with his, till I fixed...

Dang...I have NOT heard of one "stuck" in the wrong mode........possibly remove the batteries......try again...if no luck you may have a defective TX.....When my dad received his...it would not bind at all I opened the Tx to find the ant. leads were inadvertently soldered together...

Check the instructions it came with...there is a way to switch to mode 2 instead of mode one... mode two is easier to fly...It will be something like ..hold down the speed control button when you turn it on...and wait for two beeps...or something like that...are we talking about a Syma X8?
